The How To Show

How to turn a "Speak & Spell" into a musical instrument

MTV’s “The How To Show” is a series of mobile-based films that teach the viewer how to do things in short, simple steps. Past subjects have included “Be a Sneaker Baller,” “Get Out of a Speeding Ticket,” and “Do a Backside Flip.”

Commissioned by MTV to create videos, we researched and developed content for the pieces, scouted artists to feature, and directed individual episodes exploring the underground digital music scene. Features include “How To Circuit Bend,” “How To Make a Custom Controller,” and “How To Play 1-bit Music.”
